___________________________________
Hermit Hideaways explores South Korea’s familiar and lesser known travel destinations. It serves as a way of introducing Korea to those on their way over, expatriates that are already based here and Koreans wishing to learn about their own country from a foreign perspective. Since its inception in 2007, the site has grown from that of strictly a Korean Photography blog to include a host of other cultural insights together with projects and freelance work the administrator is currently involved with.

I’m surprised and impressed at ur work.

I like them^^
Hi Yuna. Thanks for stopping by. Yes, I am aware of the distinction. I became inspired to take photography more seriously after having travelled through both SEA and Korea.
hi gregory, nice photos. by the way, in your “about” section, do you mean East Asia? korea falls under East Asia, and not SE Asia unless you actually were trekking in South East Asia = Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand etc.
I love your photos- beautiful and often poignant.
… How did you end up in Korea? Sorry, I should probably read through your posts, but I’m impatient. And curious.
Thank you for that, Kane!
Greg! Your writing and photos are wonderful! I envy you.
I do. Thank you for stopping by!
Do you love Korea? I thought there is love towards Korea in your pictures.
Thanks Linds!
Greg, just wanted to say that I love all of your pictures.
They really are beautiful.
